    Review and Measurements of Paradigm PW-Link Streamer/DAC

    Wrong.If you're right, show me your Sub curve corrected by Arc. PW LINK Arc Room Correction is only designed on for 2.0 systems. Just read Pw link specifications or first pages of this thread. Only ARC on more expansive Anthem amps or preamps are designed for one or two subs.

    Agreed. I'm very satisfied with Spotify connect(premium), works flawlessly with Pw Link(no gap). Mp3 320 kbps is enough for me, the most important is the quality of recording.

    Hi ! Pw link accept files up to 24 bits 192 khz but downsample them automatically to 48 khz. If you don't want a gap of 5 s beetween tracks(downsampling), only use 44hz tracks

    Drop Dan Clark Audio Aeon Closed X

    Same low level listening for me, i never exceed 70db.Closed Headphones apply a real sound pressure on ears, contrary to open ones. But i must admit that sound is so good that I'm always tempted to turn it up:p About Black Friday, i didn't notice better price on Closed X than 379 dollars, am i...

    turn off 7020hz:Well ,jazz hi hats are too mute with this.+3 db is a good compromise for musical genre other than jazz and classic 125 hz:better than 105 hz ,bass is really pushed forward,i like it ...but kick drum too :-(+3db is too much ,bass sound is a bit dull,less precise.+2 db is fine!it...

    +3 for Low shelf ,-3 for high shelf (specially with 80's production) for me, more than +3 bass boost overshadowed the rest of frequency range. As I said, Robbo EQ is the best base(no need to touch high shelf) , well balanced, soudstage width is excellent, all instruments are well détached...

    Closed X is totally delightful, even without EQ. They are my first planar headphones, i came from dynamic Grado Rs2. Closed X tonality is just right, sound is the cleanest and smoothest i ever heard. Liquid sound, really ! You have 4 tuning filters for Eq , i don't even use them.You just need a...

    Drop Dan Clark Audio Aeon Closed X

    well,after hours of listening,i think you nailed it with Aeon closed x sample 2 EQ!:D It's a very good base: very good openess and voice clarity but ,on my humble opinion,too shy on bass(Closed x bass quality is too good to waste it) and too brillant for my taste(lack of bass reinforcement put...
